I was lucky enough to get a short shifter once. Ended up selling it to Ryan for $200.

$250 short shifter vs. $35 used voodoo **** from the 'Bay

...and that sums up why I don't have a short shifter.

John and you don't have it because you like the look and feel of a $50 **** more than the effect of a short throw. Plus there's a low chance of using a welder and you'd prefer not to spend over $100 on something that can't break easily.

Black Cherry bitch get it right, lol.

I was heading home and noticed a set of RX-8 headlights coming up on me then you pulled up. I waved, you may not have seen it though.

That MX-5 (Actually it is a MazdaSpeed ) is my buddy Stephens new car. We ran out to Indiana to pick it up.

After you passed us I called Megan and told her I just saw her old wheels pass me up

Why don't you check out the short shifter of one of the guys who already have it so you can make an informed decision as to whether or not its worthwhile?

You failed to identify another RX8 as your own color...when in fact it was not. You have no cherry and your car color sux. :P

Im sure Dana or Ryan would be willing if properly bribed.

Yeah as soon as I saw you pull up I knew it was you, I instantly recognized the wheels. I probably should have put the window down to wave instead of waving through the tint
